The power within Cordyceps was discovered 1,500 years ago in the Tibetan mountain pastures. Chinese herdsmen observed that their cattle and livestock became very energetic after eating a grass-like mushroom – even the older animals became vigorous and more youthful in their actions. Chinese practitioners were soon making up powerful potions of this substance for many of life’s maladies.
Cordyceps regulates and ensures the normal functioning of various parts of the body, strengthens the immune system and promotes overall vitality and longevity.

SLEEP – - A Chinese herbal prescription.
You don’t know how much you’re missing if you cannot sleep well, because sleep is the simplest pleasure of life. The lack of sleep also affects other simple pleasures like eating and energetic activities. Consequently, treating your sleep problem should be a high priority.

The causes of sleep problems are very complex:
• External factors such as finance, personal relationships, work, family, security feeling, and other stresses of life.
• You make your life too complicated by inventing or following certain rules or customs that don’t make much sense.
• Your lifestyle may be so irregular that it cuts into your sleep.
• You may have some physical ailments that affect your sleep.
• Your body may be in some state of imbalance that disturbs your sleep.

Nature of sleep:
• The quality of sleep should not be judged by arbitrary rules such as how much, when and where, etc., because each person is different.
• Sleep serves the purpose of replenishment and rejuvenation, and its quality should be judged by the results delivered.
• If you wake up refreshed, you must have had a good sleep.
• If you wake up feeling a drag the rest of the day, your sleep must have failed to deliver. If this continues for many days, you’ll know that something must have gotten into your sleep, or it may not be a sleep problem after all.

There is no such thing as sleeping herbs that put you to sleep within a short time. The Chinese approach aims to address the conditions that disturb your sleep. An herbal prescription should emphasize correcting the imbalance that exists in your body, whereby restoring it to the normal state where sleep will become once more a normal function and pleasure.

A discussion with the patient is necessary if the herbalist cares to understand the root cause of sleep problems. Because the root cause varies greatly, only a basic prescription is given here consisting of mild nourishing and calming herbs. The underlying assumption is that without positively identifying where the imbalance is, the best alternative is to nourish and soothe the major organs and let them do the natural balancing themselves.

1) Calming effect
Zao Ren 棗 仁
Bai Zi Ren 柏 子 仁
Mai Men Dong 麥 門 冬
2) Liver
Bai Shao 白 芍
Jin Yin Hua 金 銀 花
3) Stomach
Shan Yao 山 藥
Dang Shen 党 參
4) Lungs
Bai He 百 合
Bai Qian 白 前
5) Kidneys
Qian Shi 芡 實
Du Zhong 杜 仲
6) Heart
Wu Wei Zi 五 味 子
A combination of 12 herbs is recommended.

One must be careful not to prescribe strong herbs for fast results. The consequence may be negative. When stronger herbs are used, they generate heat inside the body. Excess heat will worsen the sleep problems.

Drink one cup (8 oz) of herb tea a day, preferably in the late afternoon to allow time for the herbs to work its way through.

This is just one formula with countless variations depending on:
* How accurate the herbalist understands the root cause.
* How weak is your body and where is the weakness.
* How sensitive is your body to the herbs.
